[edit] Never entered

The table as drawn up in this article is erroneous. There was never an entry for Phoenix Finance during this season, or any other, so there are no results. Simple as that. Bretonbanquet (talk) 19:44, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

From my understanding, the team did at least show up in Malaysia, even though the FIA didn't allow them to run. The359 (talk) 05:37, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

But they didn't have an entry. Are we going to include everyone throughout history who turned up to a race without an entry? Bretonbanquet (talk) 14:15, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Honestly, how many teams have showed up at races without an entry? The359 (talk) 00:34, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

There's no way of knowing, which is why they shouldn't be included, as well as the fact that they're not entered!! Are you suggesting that just because there may not be many, we should include them as having "results" where they clearly don't have any? Bretonbanquet (talk) 00:41, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

I was thinking more along the lines of teams that did eventually race but had some races they were excluded from either before or after.

I wont argue if the chart goes, but I would like to see this article expanded if possible, it is certainly an interesting story. The359 (talk) 06:51, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Yes, certainly teams that eventually raced should have their attempted entires recorded in some way. Also, for sure, there aren't many teams who turned up hoping to race that never actually managed to start any race at all. The only part I have a problem with is the chart; I agree that the story itself needs to be fully explained as it reflects the modern situation as regards owning a Formula One team vis a vis actually being able to enter a race :) Bretonbanquet (talk) 18:32, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
